User Guide for iPadOS 17

Apple Inc

iPadOS 17 focuses on personalization and productivity. It brings a brand new Lock Screen experience to iPads, letting you choose wallpapers, fonts, and even add widgets for quick glances at information like weather or upcoming events. You can create multiple Lock Screens and switch between them for different moods or occasions. On the multitasking front, Stage Manager gets more flexible; position windows more freely at any size you desire.

This update also introduces the Health app to iPad for the first time, taking advantage of the larger screen for health and fitness data. Other changes include better note-taking in Notes with full-width PDF and document scan support, and a revamped Messages app with audio transcriptions.

User Guide for iPadOS 16

Just like in iOS 16, the iPad gained several welcome additions to Messages in iPadOS 16, the main ones being the ability to edit, un-send, and mark messages as read. Mail received some similar updates, with the option to un-send emails and set reminders.

Photo management also got a boost, with a new (very cool) feature letting you tap and hold a picture to remove the subject from its background. From there, you can drag and drop it into another app like Notes, Messages, or Mail. And if your image library is too big, Photos in iPadOS 16 will also check for duplicates and let you quickly delete them to free up room.

Other updates include updated Home and Weather apps, Family Sharing, and the "virtual whiteboard" app Freeform, which allows for collaboration and quick notes and sketches.

User Guide for iPadOS 15

Apple Inc

Starting with iPadOS 15, you could add widgets to your Home screen, right above your apps. Doing so lets you check the weather, stocks, international time, and other things without having to go to a different screen. An even bigger improvement came to multitasking, which gained a dedicated menu and the ability to add apps to Split View from the App Switcher.

While it wasn't available at launch, iPad 15.1 introduced SharePlay, which lets multiple people watch a movie, listen to music, and share their screens over a FaceTime call. For example, a group can set up a music playlist and update it in real-time, or watch a movie and have it automatically sync up to everyone's devices.

Another big addition to Messages is Shared With You, which collects all of the photos, links, and other items people have sent to you. This feature saves you from having to scroll up to find that news article or podcast; it's all in the conversation details.

User Guide for iPadOS 14

Apple Inc.

The second iteration of iPadOS (though it's called "14") introduced more changes that make the most of the tablet's larger screen. App improvements include sidebars and extra menus that let you perform tasks quickly without leaving your window. Scribble lets you hand-write notes with an Apple Pencil; your iPad will automatically convert your scrawls into type.

Messages also gained the ability to pin conversations, and the iPad also gained the option to set a maximum volume level for headphones.

User Guide for iPadOS 13

Apple Inc. 

iPadOS is the first operating system for the iPad that differs from the iOS used by the iPhone - hence its name change. The most obvious change is the introduction of dark mode to the iPad. Still, there are many other enhancements to improve the iPad experience for users.

iPad OS 13 supports SD cards and external disk drives natively, through the Files app. Markup is introduced systemwide so users can annotate images and documents. Improved multitasking with Slide Over, a new Home screen redesign, and lower latency for the Apple Pencil add to its features.

The performance improvements of iOS 12 made the iPad faster. New gestures include accessing the app switcher, jumping between apps, going to the Home screen, and invoking Control Center. Even the photo import process, which hasn't changed in years, is improved. A few apps are redesigned, including News, Books, Voice Memos, and Stocks.

When Apple released iOS 10, it wasn't so much a revolutionary upgrade over iOS 9 as it extended the features and shored up the foundations of the operating system. Major changes delivered with this version include apps in iMessage, improvements to Siri, and a revised lock screen experience.

The first generation iPad made its debut in 2010 with iOS 3.2 (earlier iOS versions were iPhone-only). There's probably not much here for day-to-day use at this stage. However, the document is interesting from a historical perspective.
